As the vice-chair for SCIP’s 2009 conference planned for April 23 – 24 in Chicago, I am happy to report that the call for proposals has finally been posted on the SCIP web site.
In the past I’ve had the pleasure to both present at a SCIP conference and serve on the program committee to choose the sessions that will be presented in a particular track. If a CI professional has a topic that they would like to promote or explore, a session at the SCIP conference is a great way to do that.
We’ve tried to put together an innovative set of tracks and meet the needs of both new conference attendees and old hands. The new tracks are as follows:
- CI Offense/Defense
- Professional Effectiveness
- Critical Skills
- Entrepreneurial CI
- Intelligence R&D
- Active Dialog
I’m happy to field any questions propsective presenters might have here on this blog or in e-mail. At a high level I would recommend that you choose an interesting topic for which you can demonstrate an in-depth or unique knowledge. I also highly recommend taking the time to put together a strong and detailed proposal.
Good luck!
